Another week has passed without much fuss. The plants sure are low maintenance when they are young.
However, I found the telltale silver spots on a couple of leaves on another plant, and sure enough, I found a few thrips, although it's not a massive infestation. Yet.
It's been a couple of years since I last had thrips, so I have no clue where they came from. I suspect some coriander I brought home from and am now trying to grow hydroponically.
In any case, I sprayed down all plants several times with neem oil and ordered predatory mites, which should arrive today.
She is still the smallest in the tent, showing some nutrient burns on several leaves. I started her feeding at 1/3 strength, but it still looks to be a bit too hot for her. I'll back off a bit more and will monitor how she reacts. It is all part of the learning curve when you start a new way of growing :)
I'm fighting with the humidifier and Inkbird to maintain a reasonable humidity, but that is always a challenge growing in small tents.
